I am an EMDR Consultant and I approach treatment from a holistic perspective. I believe in treating the root of the presenting problem versus solely treating the symptoms. I enjoy supporting patients through their journey of breaking patterns that no longer serve them. My goal is to move patients from a life of survival to one of thriving; giving patients a chance to live a more fulfilling life. Feel free to browse through my practice's website: strengthandhopetherapycenter.com & fill out a new patient form. Anyone can self refer. You may also call or email through here or through the website. Turn around time is usually 24 hrs.
EMDR is the primary treatment modality I use. I do so because it works!! EMDR is much more than the reprocessing and desensitization stages. However, EMDR is most known for these two stages. EMDR can clear irrational thought patterns, as well disturbing emotions and sensations. It can be applied to a variety of issues or responses; including trauma.
I aim to support you find a glimpse of hope & relief even when life seems chaotic. I want you to know you are not alone in your situation and that reaching out for support IS an okay thing to do; that NOT BEING OKAY IS OKAY. In my practice you will be treated as an individual deserving of respect and empathy regardless of the issue and/or symptoms presented.

I can help you structure EMDR Intensives so that your insurance may pay a portion or all of your EMDR Intensives' treatment time. If you prefer to fully structure your EMDR Intensive schedule, self pay is a better option. EMDR Intensives allow for an increased amount of weekly/daily EMDR treatment.

I improve/enhance your mental health via several evidence-based specialties; EMDR Therapy, Positive Sexuality Therapy, and Trauma Sensitive Yoga sessions. I also love integrating/bridging poetry, sex therapy, spirituality & EMDR for those patients who are drawn to express creatively/spiritually. Individuals' creativity and spirituality are powerful healing agents, more so when properly enhanced.
